Summary:
The funeral is a week later. The church is sterile and nearly empty. Bruce sits next to Alfred in the front row. His eyes are fixed on his shoes the whole time. His eyes are dull and unfocused. The speakers, for there are so many, talk and talk and talk until he thinks about screaming for them to shut up. He doesn’t care what they have to say! Alfred always squeezes his hand when he feels that very strong thought and he knows he can’t do that to Alfred because he loved his parents too.
The last one to speak is an old priest, his dad's childhood one, he thinks. He wants to summon enough energy to look up and pay attention but the words about God’s love and kindness curdle the thoughts sour before he even manages it. God is cruel if one or more even exists.
He thinks to himself that maybe if he were to meet one what he would do. Maybe he would shout at them until his voice was gone. Maybe he would fight them. He thinks he would make them weak though. That makes the most sense to him. If he were to make a god or more mortal then, they would be subject to the misery they created or, at the least, didn’t stop.
It's @spideychellebigbang timeeee!!!! I'm SO thrilled to be sharing the art I made for @lightedwindows' fic "the same old someone that I knew"!! Working on this with her was a blast and I hope you all enjoy!❤

Summary: Assumed novel writer, by Peter, and coffeeshop owner it’s like a love made in fanfiction.
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Tony Stark
A/N: I loved this, so much that THIS is what I wrote! I love it. happy reading!
“You should get with him,” “I should not!” “Take it from a gen z your eyes are sparkling.” “Get back to work Parker,” “yes Mr Stark.”
Tony Stark owns a coffee shop, he employees college students because who else has the same strive for science that he does than those from Columbia Tech. But he owns a coffee shop because that’s what fuels him when he does his science binges.
Peter Parker took the job because he needed the money (and the free coffee he gets is always a bonus).
And he feels a part of a community at Industries because Tony Stark has platonic love for all his employees.
“Your employees are quite chatty.”
Tony Stark turns back to the coffee shop counter that he’s supposed to be working on, the guy in question is standing there, with dark brown long hair and stunning brown eyes that turn Black in the wrong light. Dammit Parker’s right.
“I like my workspace like that it’s much more organic,” Parker comes up behind him leaning his face on his shoulder a steaming pot of coffee in his hand “it’s because he loves us.” Tony rolls his eyes “Yeah, that too.”
Bucky, as his constant receipt tells Tony, smiles at them both “I think it’s good, healthy.”
If that smile doesn’t make Tony weep to his knees he doesn’t know what will. Through Peter Parker’s eye’s he knows that Bucky is perfect for Tony Stark, assumed novel writer, by Peter, and coffeeshop owner it’s like a love made in fanfiction.
“I’m glad you do, it scares some people,” “it doesn’t scare me, it invites me,” that response from Bucky makes it all better, the way Tony runs his job, the horrible comments others make about him running an inclusive coffee shop.
Tony pops his shoulder moving peter’s head away “get back to work Pete, and boil a fresh brew of coffee.”
“On it boss,” Peter Parker is very happy to get back to work watching from a side view as his boss and favourite customer communicate.
“What can I get for you?” Tony smiles at Bucky across the counter leaning into the computer ready to type. “A white chocolate mocha,” Tony’s eyebrows pop upon request “never took you for a white chocolate kind of guy,” “I’m not.” This only makes Tony more confused but knowing that Bucky is buying for someone else, “I know that you like it though so it’s for you.”
Tony just nods writing down the order going over his head what bucky had just said. Bucky speaks up again “you really should listen to your employees, you should get with him.”
Somehow Peter has knocked Tony to lean over the counter closer to Bucky, the space is small behind the counter, in his defence.
“Yeah maybe I will,” Tony responds “what about Friday then?”
“Friday, sure, enjoy you’re Mocha.”
Bucky leaves the doorbell signalling he’s gone.
“Mocha?” Tony finishes confused watching Bucky leave, quite happily.

I am delighted to finally share what my partner @kittenkatsart and I have been working on these past few months!! Check out the BEAUTIFUL companion art Katie made to go with this fic!!
chapter preview:
A box of loose leaf tea shouldn’t make Peter’s heart skip as much as it does.
But here he is, unable to say anything other than a muttered thank you as he holds the box of New England maple, his fingers tracing over the delicate intricacies of the packaging as MJ rambles on and on about how she’d seen it in one of the gift shops. How she’d remembered him saying that he liked it when she’d made it for him at that one AcaDec meeting at her apartment. How she always gets a box for herself, but decided to get one for him, too.
Their friendship is still new, still in that phase of uncertainty and excitement where the mental gymnastics of asking the other to hangout is too much. Were they actually friends outside of school? Or was this out of convenience, out of sheer proximity?
Peter hadn’t expected to even see her during the summer, and he had (mostly) accepted that.
The idea that Michelle would even think of him while on her annual trip to Maine with her family hadn’t even crossed his mind. After all, why would she? Just because she’s taken up residency—rent-free—in his head since the beginning of Junior year no way implies mutuality.
It’s been a long time since I wrote anything, hasn’t it? But that is over now!
The 2021 @skambigbang got me writing again and it’s finally time to show you all my work, NUMB WITHOUT YOU with the amazing artwork of Stewit234!
It’s a piece of work I stared back in March 2020 and picked up this year. It was the first thing I started writing with Isak & Even, so it’s my baby (even if it took me a year to post it).
Here’s the summary if you’re interested to give it a read:
Even has a citizenship in the USA. Isak needs a green card for a fellowship. As always, Sana is the one with the answers and sets them up.
A fake marriage that leads to them living together in another country and stuck with each other during quarantine. With time, feelings change and none of them knows how to deal with it. So, obviously, Even turns to Reddit for answers.
The rest is a love story.
If you read it, I hope you have fun! Chapters will be posted every Thursday!
